Burying the Bitter: A Boutique Series Short

​**TOP 100 FAMILY LIFE FICTION**﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿Amazon 5-star review: "Has the right amount of emotion while dealing with a serious topic."﻿﻿﻿﻿Eveline's heading back to Richmond for her uncle's funeral. It's a service she'd prefer to miss. Uncle Neville was not the kind, old uncle the rest of the public deemed him to be and remembering his life is not what she wants to do.

Throughout the service, she's counting down the minutes until she's back on the plane returning home to Atlanta. Only when she spots a familiar face from her past, she reconsiders going back so soon. Dodge Mallory. The one every girl in high school wanted, including Eveline. One embarrassing afternoon with him changed her life. Did he remember her? Did she really want him to?

During one short trip... Eveline is forced to face all of her demons at once. Past and present.​*Some swearing, suggestive content.
